Wilderness Advanced First Aid Courses (CPR included)
Wilderness Advanced First Aid (WAFA) courses are designed for trip leaders and those travelling or working in remote areas who need a more extensive training program than the Wilderness First Aid course. This 5-day course focuses on stabilisation, treatment, and evacuation guidelines for patients in backcountry environments. Emphasis is placed on long- term patient care management and specific injury evaluation. CPR is included.
This course is 40 hours long (5 days) and most often includes a night scenario. In order to receive a WAFA certification you need to pass both written and a practical test.
Everyone is welcome, no previous experience required.
